Bedtime story time

I am off for my annual week of golf with my friends. Usually we go in early July, but my province was not yet opened, so we are off next week. The group has been going on a golf tour for 37 years. I joined 20 years ago, and have only one the trophy once, but it is always good fun. This week we are off to the beautiful city of Vernon BC to enjoy safely the courses in and around the area. So to start my week and for some fun, I have to thank BJ for the following story. See you all in a week.

A woman joins a country club and when she hears the guys talking about their golf round:

She says. "I played on my college's golf team.
I was pretty good. Mind if I join you next week?"

No one wants to say 'yes', but they're on the spot…

Finally, one man says. "Okay, but we start at 6:30 a.m."

He figures the early tee-time will discourage her.

The woman says this may be a problem and asks if she can be up to 15 minutes late.

They roll their eyes, but say. "Okay."

She's there at 6:30 am. sharp and beats all of them with an eye-opening 2-under par round.

She's fun and pleasant and the guys are impressed.

They congratulate her and invite her back the next week.

She smiles, and says. "I'll be there at 6:30, or 6:45."

The next week she again shows up at 6:30 sharp.

Only this time, she plays left-handed.

The three guys are incredulous as she still beats them with an even par round, despite playing with her off-hand.

They're totally amazed. They can't figure her out. She's very pleasant and a gracious winner.

They invite her back again, but each man harbors a burning desire to beat her.

The third week, she's 15 minutes late, which irritates the guys.

This week she plays right-handed and narrowly beats all three of them.

The men grumble that her late arrival is petty gamesmanship on her part.

However, she's so charming and complimentary of their strong play, they can't hold a grudge.

This woman is a riddle no one can figure out.

They have a couple of beers in the Clubhouse and finally, one of the men asks her. "How do you decide if you're going to golf right-handed or left-handed?"

The lady blushes, and grins. "When my dad taught me to play golf, I learned that I was ambidextrous." She replies. "I like to switch back and forth. When I got married after college, I discovered my husband always sleeps in the nude. From then on, I developed a silly habit. Right before I leave in the morning for golf practice, I pull the covers off him. If his willie points to the right, I golf right-handed; if it points to the left, I golf left-handed."

The guys think this is hysterical.

Astonished at this bizarre information, one of the guys says. "What if it's pointing straight up?"

She says. "That's why I was fifteen minutes late

I used to play golf when I was a lot younger, Royce, but I’d insist on wearing my lucky pair of ripped old socks for every game. That way I was guaranteed I’d always have a hole in one.
